Stayed on the west side of Cincy and got a reasonably early start. The drive across Indiana and Illinois wasn’t too difficult. We stopped at a Harvest Host site, a winery, Kickapoo Creek. They had a lunch with live music going when we arrived at about 3:45, but we had stopped in town for lunch. Bought a bottle of wine and walked around the grounds. Unlike some of the wineries we’ve seen this one looked prosperous. Here’s a picture of the view from our back window.

The vineyard’s on the right. This place is 4 hrs from E’ville. A good distance for a first day’s stop, and the wine was good.
